MUCH STONE THROWING.
Cars on Green Ridge People's Xine
Run Yesterday for the First
Time Since Strike Began.
For the first time since the strike le-
f;an, ears were yesterday run on the
Green IIIiIro People's line. Kepalrs
were contemplated on this line, and
when the strike set In the company
prot-ccded to make them. The repairs
wore completed last wool.', and yester
day the lino was reouencd.
There was considerable stone throw
ing alone tho lino, especially on Cn
pottso avenue, and at various points
obstructions were heaped on the track.
One ear was assailed with a volley of
stotK-s from a house-top. Two of the
three cuts had their windows broken.
At one place, cm Capouso avenue,
where a ear was stalled by obstruc
tions, a crowd gathered and pome per
son In the crowd tired u shot from 11
ru'volvur. It is supposed, however, the
shot was llrcd into the air or the
ground. No cats were run on this line
after 6 o'clock.
A little boy who was placing ob
structions on the track near New
street was captured by a motorman,
placed aboard the car and taken to
the company's otllce. Superintendent
Patterson took him to his home and
warned his parents that if lie was
again detected in any such act he
would be prosecuted.
The company Is usinfr its twenty-five
new men on the city lines tit present to
break them in and in the course of a
few days will have them relieve men
who will bo sent out on the Plttston,
iuryea and Throop lines. Tonight
the company will bcKin running theatre
cars to all parts of the city.
Tho strikers were somewhat agitated
yesterday over a report that all the
officers and directors of the company
had come here to hold a 111001111)?. It
developed that the men who were mis
taken for the executives and director
ate of the company were Treasurer
C Ford Stevens and a number of
bookkeepers in the Clarke olllees in
Philadelphia, who were summoned as
witnesses in the suit of Keogh ct al.
against tin- Kcrunlon and Plttston

The stiikers have begun soliciting

IS LIKELY TO
PALL THROUGH
DEFECTIVE DEOLABATION
IMPORTANT CASE.
IN
In tho Suit of Keogh nnd Others to
Enjoin the Operation of tho Scran
ton nnd Tlttston Rnllwny Company
in the Borough of Old Forge, the
Defendant's Attorneys Point Out
nn Irregularity in the Pleadings
That Will Probnbly Defeat theJ
Cnae Other Court Notes.
The ease of Charles J. Keouji and oth
ers against the Scrunlon and Plttston
Hallway company was taken tin by
Judge Kdwards yesterday in etiulty
court.
Tho plaintiffs are citizens of Old
Forge, who fought unsuccessfully to
secure a. franchise for a trolley road
through that municipality. The Scran
ton and Plttston company, on adjunct
of the .Scranton Knit way company,
cftinu after them and succeeded in se
curing thu franchise.
The plaintiffs wont into court with
an attack on the franchise alleging that
It was secured by fraud nnd corruption.
Tho testimony showed that eouncllnicu
who voted for tho franchise ordinance
were given passes by the company.
Judge aunstcr held-that this was Im
proper and granted the Injunction
prayed for to prevent the companyi'rom
operating the rood under the provis
ions oc the tainted ordinance.
Jator the company applied for a.
modification of the injunction, and
when it was shown Hint the passes
wore returned nnd a new ordinance
passed, the modification was allowed.
Now tho plaintiffs are attacking the
franchise on the ground that the sec
ond ordinance, being a duplicate of the
first, must bo regarded as bearing the
same taint as the one it succeeds.
"When tho case came to be heard
yesterday it was found that tho dec
laration was framed to assume the
second ordinance indirectly through
the first. Judge Kdwards intimated
very strongly that the declaration was
defective and that tho suit, must drop.
Adjourning time arrived before a de
cision was finally reached. The plain
tiffs are represented by If. M. Hannah
and Cornelius Conu-gys. The defen
dant's attorneys are Major Everett
"Warren and Joseph O'JJrien.
The case of Mrs. Elizabeth Kraft
against Charles I). Neuffer and Minnie
Meyers was also heard yesterday.
William Meyers, father of Mrs.
Kraft, the plaintiff, was tho owner of
a property on the corner of Jefferson
avenue and Linden street. He deeded
it to Charles D. Neuffer in trust fur
his- daughter, Mrs. Kraft and his nep
hew, Joseph Meyets, after his and his
wife's death.
Joseph Meyers preceded tho uncle In
death, but before dying assigned his
interest in this and all other property
to J. S. McAnulty. Shortly after
wards, "William Meyers made a will
beifucathing all his property to his
daughter. He died in 1S9.S. Neuffer
proceeded to sell the property, and di
vide it under the terms of the deed
of trust. Mrs. Kraft now seeks to en
join this sale oh the ground that the
will rescinded tho deed of trust and
made her the solo heir, to tho exclu
sion of the Joseph Meyers assigned in
terst.
Closing arguments were made yes
terday In the case of A. D. .Spencer
against Fred Emery and T. Jt.
Hughes.
Inventor Brings Suit.
Through 'Walker & Hill, suit for $1,
100 was instituted yesterday by Joseph
"Walker against the "Walker Automatic
Steam Coupler company.
Tho plaintiff, who is the invbntor of
the coupler, claims lie was promised
$1,000 if he demonstrated the capability
of the machine to do what he claimed
for it. A test was made and the ex
perts declared it clllcient in every re
spect, but tho company has never
made good tho promise to pay him
$1,000. Tho other $100 sued for Is cash
advanced by tho plaintiff to the com
pany, id the company's request.

LICENSE TAX ORDINANCE.
Generally Admitted That Is Is an.
Illegnl Measure in Certain Re
spectsMay Be Amended.
If is now generally admitted that the
license lax ordinance Just signed by
Recorder Council Is an Illegal measure
In at least two respects, leaving out
of consideration the question of legal
ity of the general principle upon which
it is based, nnmely that municipali
ties have the right to levy a tax on
corporations for revenue purposes.
The first respect In which the ordi
nance i.M admitted to bo illegal, it. is
understood, even by the city solicitor
himself, is that it provides for n tax
on the entire gross receipts ot street
railway companies, without considera
tion as to where these receipts are
taken In, Instead of specifically Impos
ing ti tax on only the receipts for this
city.
Tho second part of the ordinance
which is admitted to be lllocal is that
KC'etll'lM "U'lllell ImnnsioQ n inv nn flu. I
gross receipts of telephone companies.
The franchlso of the Lackawanna
Telephone company provides that the
company shall pay a tax of one per
cent, of its gross receipts. Lawyers
agree In saying that the city cannot
annul this contract by passing an or
dinance requiring the company to pax
two per cent, of Its gross receipts.
it is argued by niany that the city
need not attempt to enforce any save
the legal portions of the ordinance.
That is to say, that no effort should bo
made to collect more than one per
cent, from tho Lackawanna Telephone
company,, and that a tax should only
be collected on tho receipts of the
Hcranton Kailway company for thts
city alone.
There is also some talk of the pas
sage of an ordinance amending the
one just signed, by remedying the al
leged legal defects.
DYNAMITE WAS USED.
Attempt to Blow Up the House of
Joseph Soby and Kill Hirrv
self ,-md Wife.
A fiendish attempt to blow up tree
'home of Joseph Soby, a well known
resident of Third street. Jertnyn, was
made shortly before midnight on Tues
day. Mr. and .Mrs. Soby had retired to
sleep when they -re awakened by a
loud report, the concussion of which
almost threw them out of bed. Inves
tigation yesterday morning showed
the damage had been done by dyna
mite. It Is believed si cap was placed in
the dynamite to which it fuse was at
tached and that it was intended to
throw it in the bed room window. Tho
fiend who threw it must novo taken
poor aim and instead of going through
the window it struck tho siding along
side the frame and then fell on tho
roof of the porch, where it exploded,
blowing a hole about a foot In diameter
through the porch roof, and broku the
gliiKS in the front windows.
A piece of fuse about four inehes in
length was picked up yesterday morn
ing. The explosion was heard In all
purls of the borough, and sit first many
thought it was a. celebration of thu
Democratic ilctory.
AN, EXCELLENT PROGRAMME.

of Linden Street Temple.
An uiitertalnmc-nt of unusual excel
lence was conducted last night In tho

FOR CURE OF
CONSUMPTION
INSTITUTION ON THE MOUN
TAIN AT WHITE HAVEN.
It Is Situated on a Fni-m on a High
Plateau a Portion of Which Hns
Been Under Cultivation Only Ear
ly Cases Arc Treated nnd with
Theso a Largo Percentage of Cures
Aro Effectod Plenty of Rest and
Nourishment for tho Patients Is
the Treatment.
"Jn company with Dr. Lewis II. Tay
lor. i Record representative recently
Visited the Konsumptlou enmp nt "White
Haven n camp which seems destined
to develop Into an extensive sanitar
ium In which tho poor who have con
tracted tuberculosis can find treatment.
Only early cases aro treated, and expe
rience In other like Institutions shows
thpt In early cases a largo .percentage
of euros is possible," says tho YVilkcs
ttarro Record.
"It occupies a farm on a high plnt-
leati Just above the borough of White
Haven, tho farm comprising sonie'ilr.
acres. Tho plateau portion has been
under cultivation, but there Is a lofty
eminence adjoining C-rcen Mountain
which admirably protects the plateau
from tho northwest wind.
"The movement originated in Phil
adelphia and ut the last session of the
legislature It was voted an appropria
tion of $10,000. With tills money and
other to bo received later it Is pur
posed to fit up an Institution similar
lo those In effective operation In Ger
many and Switzerland and In several
nf the United States. Tho patients are
not to occupy a single large building,
but' cottages will bo erected, each to
accommodate eight persons.
MKREIA A CAMP.
"At present the movement Is repre
sented merely by what might be called
a camp. The only hospital building Is
an old. barn, and through tho cracks
and windows, which are never closed,
the wind whistles in a. manner as to
almost frighten the visitor. The cracks
tiro all covered on the side from which
the storms come, but apart from this
it is practically wide open. Inside aro
twenty beds, all occupied. More beds
will bo put in the hay loft. The barn
is lo be slightly warmed from a hot
water plant, but only up to a tempera
ture of -10 degrees.
"The only other building Is the old
farm house, and here tho food is pre
pared nnd served by a, competent col
ored cook, whoso kitchen is a model.
Tho house Is not heated. The pa
tients occupy the barn only for sleep
ing. After they have made their beds
and done whatever work is to be done
(for it is intended to keep them pleas
antly employed whenever possible) the
patients start out to spend the day
in tlio open air. A semi-circular shed
lias been built on the edge of the plat
eau, looking over tho town audi vnlley,
tho curved side being boarded up to
as to keep the wind and storm out.
"The front is open. In tho shed
kiosk It Is technically called are easy
chairs, in which the patients, wrapped
in warm blankets, sit and read or play
games. If they feel cold they build a
big outdoor fire of logs in front of the
kiosk and thus a few degrees are taken
off the temperature. The patients thus
fur manifest a marked improvement.
They are fed well and In addition to
an abundant diet of substantial food,
each patient is expected to take six
raw eggs and drink three quarts of
milk. With such a diet they all gain
weight in spite of their illness.
HAS NO NUItSES.
"The institution has no nurses, for
cases which require nurses aro not ad
mitted. The overslght.of the place is
In the capable charge of .dwell Stock
dale, a young man who was cured by
similar methods in Germany and
Switzerland. Every other week Dr.
Lawrence F. Flick of Philadelphia, one
of the leading spirits in the enterprise,
visits the camp.
"At present the water supply comes
from a nearby spring, but an artesian
well Is to be sunk. Then an acre Is
to be planted with pines and as soon
as they aro large enough the mountain
side is to bo set out with these health-
giving trees. This will be under the
auspices or the Slate Forestry Depart
ment. "The camp was opened nearly three
months ago. The site is 1,100 feet
libovo the sea. The patients rise at 7
and retire at fl. They are taught to
be careful about their expectorations
anil all these discharges aro collected
and burned. All tho patients are glad
lo work nt anything they e.m do. and
therefore the only paid employes are
the superintendent and the cook."
